Endless Possibilities: How to Make Matcha Ice

Tools used

The quantities shown in the photo are based on the size of the ice tray.
Start with 3g of matcha, 6g of sugar, and 200ml of water, then adjust the amounts to match the size of your ice tray.

 

1.Sift 6g of matcha into a bowl using a tea strainer.

You can use any type of container, but I recommend one that allows for easy pouring when transferring the mixture into the ice tray.

 

2.Once the matcha has been sifted, add 12g of sugar to the same container.

 

3.Add a small amount of water to the container with matcha and sugar, then mix well.

Use a small amount of water from the measured 400ml.

Thoroughly mix the matcha, sugar, and water with a spoon.
While we're using a spoon this time, for a smoother blend, I recommend using a chasen (bamboo whisk) or a regular whisk.

 

4.Add the remaining water and mix well.

 

5.Gently pour to ensure even distribution, then place in the freezer until solid.

Gently pour to ensure even distribution.

 

6.Once frozen and solid, it's ready to enjoy!

It will freeze solid in half a day to a full day.

Once set, remove it from the mold and enjoy it in your favorite drink!

 

For example...

Try making a matcha squash by adding citrus juice, syrup, and sparkling water.

As the ice melts, the refreshing taste of matcha gradually blends with the crisp citrus flavors.

Another great idea is to swap the ice in your matcha latte for matcha ice, enhancing the depth of matcha flavor.
Even as the ice melts, your latte stays rich and full-bodied, ensuring a luxurious matcha experience.

 

Enjoy your matcha moments!
